Shade plants are species that thrive in low-light conditions, often found under the canopy of larger trees or in areas with limited sunlight. These plants have adapted to survive with less direct sunlight, making them ideal for gardens or landscapes that receive partial to full shade. Common examples include ferns, hostas, and astilbes.
Growing shade plants can enhance the beauty of shaded areas in your garden while providing a lush, green environment. They often have broader leaves to capture more light and can add texture and color to spaces that might otherwise be barren. Proper care, including adequate watering and soil management, is essential for their health.
